>>101294713Yeah I'm sure advertisers and ideologues will see it that way. She has alt-right brand appeal, she associates with vtubers who have conservative, political branding, and as a result she has become the (delusional) inspiration to a potentially violent political actor - there's no getting around that perception.
So no, the details of the incident don't matter when it comes to her reputation. Whether he "literally did nothing" doesn't matter, he's still a fascist who showed up with a shotgun after tweeting his hopes for a "Kent State x5," and he is plastered all over the news next to her face and name.
I feel bad for her because obviously she wouldn't want something like this to happen, but at the same time, she has to know by now the cost of associating your brand with *that* audience.
This is why it's probably for the best that vtubers don't weigh in on politics.
